Re: String height
I find with the flatter neck I can get the action very very low, which is how I like it, but

I do think heavier strings sound better I use 11s The main tech issue is not the neck, but the nut, the slots will be too small, so you need another nut for that gauge or make the slots bigger yourself, lots of You Tube help out there.

Re: Brand New 325C64 Issues
Most new guitars benefit from a set up, the shop you bought it from should do it for free.

My 340 needs a new nut
Hi, my 89 340/6 MG, owned since new by me, need a new nut , the grooves are too worn and I
could try the "baking soda and glue" trick, but feel she deserves better.
